Supplier info: Travel Editions

Travel Editions was set up fourteen years ago with the clear intention of offering a range of short breaks and extended holidays which would appeal to 'travellers' not 'tourists' and whose itineraries were not readily available on the high street.

Their range of holidays now includes a number of 'themed' short breaks to a range of European destinations, travelling by scheduled/charter flights and in more recent times, the Eurostar and TGV. They offer 3+/4 star hotels (which are all personally visited) and picked for their suitability for the relevant holiday. A tour manager is always on hand to smooth the way but they are insistent that customers should gain the advantage of the reduced price of group travel but without the regimentation that sometimes goes with that benefit!
